Gruden simply couldn't pass up that kind of money, I guess.

Couldn't happen to a better organization...

100 million. Guaranteed. And an owner who will basically let you go empty cupboard with no pressure, because you were nice to him when he was a lonely child driving around in a van and eating every day at P.F. Chang's (plus he doesn't have the cash to pay you even if he wants to fire you).
